Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
(a) Field of the Invention
This invention relates to novel compounds classified in the field of organic chemistry as phthalazinones, phthalimidines, pyridopyridazinones, and pyrrolopyridinones useful as color-forming substances, particularly in the art of electrochromic recording; to electrochromic recording systems containing as the color-forming substance said phthalazinones, phthalimidines, pyridopyridazinones and pyrrolopyridinones; and to processes for preparing the phthalazinones, phthalimidines, pyridopyridazinones and pyrrolopyridinones.
(b) Description of the Prior Art
Several classes of organic compounds of widely diverse structural types are known to be useful as colorless precursors for electrochromic recording. Among the more important classes, there may be named leuco type dyestuffs such as: phthalides, for example, crystal violet lactone, Malachite green lactone; fluorans, for example, 3-diethylamino-5,7-dimethylfluoran; and indolinobenzospiropyrans, for example, 1,3,3-trimethyl-6'-chloro-8'-methoxyindolinobenzospiropyran. Also utilized as colorless precursors for electrochromic recording, either alone or in admixture with the leuco compounds indicated above, are substances known as redox indicators. The redox indicator which becomes colored or discolored in situ in the electrochromic recording process also is generally a leuco body. Among the types of compounds which are applicable as redox indicators are phenothiazines, for example, leuco methylene blue and benzoyl leuco methylene blue. Other specific indicators are Leucoethyl Nile Blue, Leucomethyl Capryl Blue and Leucosafranine T. Typical of the many such electrochromic recording systems taught in the prior art are those described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,726,769, 3,871,972, 3,864,684, 4,017,366, 4,133,933, and U.S. Pat. No. Re. 29,427 which issued Apr. 10, 1973, Mar. 18, 1975, Feb. 4, 1975, Apr. 12, 1977, Jan. 9, 1979, and Oct. 4, 1977, respectively. The methods for electrochromic recording taught in the prior art have many variations. However, basically, one or both sides of a sheet of paper is coated or treated with a coating formulation containing at least one colorless color-forming (leuco) compound. Electrical current is then selectively applied to the coated side of the paper by some means, for example, a stylus or a printing head to which an electrical potential can be applied. The application of the current causes an electrochromic reaction, involving the leuco compound to produce a visible image corresponding to the design traced by the stylus or that of the printing head.
The following items to date appear to constitute the most relevant prior art with regard to the instant invention.
Kuzuya et al. in Chemical Pharmaceutical Bulletin 1980, 28(12), 3561-9 (C.A. 94:141182p) describe the preparation and physical characteristics of 4,4-diaryl-3,4-dihydro-1(2H)-phthalazinones having the structural formula ##STR1## in which R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are hydrogen or dimethylamino and R.sub.3 is dimethylamino. These phthalazinones are prepared by interacting the corresponding phthalide with hydrazine hydrate in dilute aqueous ethyl alcohol. Although no utility for the compounds is given in the reference, it is taught that the compounds develop a weak green-blue color upon exposure to a weak mineral acid such as dilute hydrochloric acid or to bentonite. It is further stated that upon exposure to a strong acid the phthalazinones are converted to phthalimidines. The phthalazinones are said to show exceptional sensitivity to ultra-violet light and were found to be excellent initiators for photo-polymerization of unsaturated compounds.
Japanese Patent Publication No. 8,089,269, published July 5, 1980, discloses and claims phthalazinones having the structural formula ##STR2## in which R.sup.1 is hydrogen, lower alkylamino, lower alkyl, lower alkoxy or chlorine; R.sup.2 is hydrogen or lower alkyl; and R.sup.3 is lower alkylamino. The compounds are prepared by heating the corresponding phthalide with hydrazine hydrate. These phthalazinones are disclosed as photochemical initiators for photo-polymerization of unsaturated compounds.
U.S. Pat. No. 4,017,366, issued Apr. 12, 1977, discloses and claims a method of printing on thermographic paper according to which the heat for causing the imaging color change in the thermographic coating is generated by means of current in a portion of the coating dampened by a thin film of a conductive salt solution which is dispersed on the thermographic coating. The current is generated by a printing head having spaced electrodes in contact with the dampened portion of the coating.
Japanese Patent Publication No. 51,050,327, published May 1, 1976 discloses phenylhydrazinolactams having the structural formula ##STR3## in which R.sub.1 and R.sub.10 represent hydrogen or lower alkyl; R.sub.2 and R.sub.9 represent hydrogen or lower alkyl; R.sub.3 and R.sub.8 represent lower monoalkylamino, lower dialkylamino, N-phenyl-N-lower alkylamino, dibenzylamino, or N-benzyl-N-lower alkylamino; R.sub.4 and R.sub.7 represent hydrogen, lower alkyl or halogen; R.sub.5 and R.sub.6 represent hydrogen, halogen, lower alkyl or alkoxy; n represents a number from 1 to 4; m represents a number from 1 to 5; X represents hydrogen, halogen, lower alkyl, lower monoalkylamino, lower dialkylamino or acylamino; and Y represents hydrogen, halogen or lower alkyl. The compounds are prepared by heating the corresponding phthalide with phenylhydrazine. No utility is disclosed for the phenylhydrazinolactams.

The compounds of Formulas I, VI, VII, XII, XVII and XVIII hereinabove are essentially colorless in the depicted form. When contacted with an electric current from an applied voltage stylus of the type ordinarily employed in electrochromic recording systems, the compounds of Formulas I, VI, VII, XII, XVII and XVIII develop yellow, yellow-brown, yellow-green, blue-green, blue, purple, magenta, and gray-colored images. These developed images are very insensitive to light, that is, once the color is developed it remains unchanged when subjected to light exposure. The developed images also possess excellent xerographic copiability.
The compounds of this invention may be incorporated in any of the commercially-accepted systems known in the electrochromic recording art. Typical techniques for the application of the color formers to paper are well-known and are described in numerous patents, for example, U.S. Pat. Nos. Re. 29,427; 3,726,769; 3,864,684; 3,871,972; 3,951,757; 4,017,366; and 4,133,933. The usual paper coatings consist of the color-forming component, an organic metal salt, a binder and some type of conductor, either an inorganic salt or a conductive polymer. This mixture is milled together optionally in the presence of a non-ionic surface active agent until the desired particle size is obtained and then the mixture is coated on paper and dried. Optionally, the color-forming substance can be milled in the presence of a binder and the remaining components milled also in the presence of a binder and the two mixtures combined together prior to coating on paper. Normally the surface of the coated paper is wet with a conductive solution containing an inorganic alkaline metal or alkaline earth metal salt, for example, potassium chloride, calcium chloride, sodium chloride, sodium bromide, potassium bromide, potassium nitrate or sodium sulfate immediately prior to the printing with the applied voltage stylus. For a quick qualitative test, it has been determined that the color-forming component can be dissolved in a suitable volatile organic solvent, coated on paper and the coated paper dried to obtain a paper sheet coated with the color-forming component. This coated sheet can then be wet with a conductive salt solution and an image traced with an applied voltage stylus to develop the colored image.
The compounds of Formulas I, VI, VII, XII, XVII and XVIII can be used alone as color-forming components in electrochromic recording paper or can be used in admixture with one or more other color-forming groups of compounds from the classes consisting of phthalides, for example, Crystal Violet Lactone; fluorans, for example, 3-diethylamino-5,7-dimethylfluoran; redox indicators, for example, phenothiazines such as benzoyl leuco methylene blue and various other types of color-forming components currently employed in commercially-accepted electrochromic recording systems.
The best mode contemplated by the inventors of carrying out this invention will now be described so as to enable any person skilled in the art to which it pertains to make and use the same.
In accordance with the aforementioned process aspects of this invention, the compounds of Formulas I, VI, VII, XII, XVII and XVIII are obtained by reacting lactone compounds of Formulas XXIII, XXV and XXVI with a R.sup.1 substituted hydrazine of Formula XXIV. This reaction is conveniently carried out in an appropriate inert organic liquid, for example, a lower alkyl alcohol such as ethanol or propanol; a glycol such as ethylene glycol or propylene glycol; or a glycol ether such as ethoxyethanol commonly known as the ethyl ether of ethylene glycol. Alternatively, the reaction can be run neat with excess hydrazine, for example, phenylhydrazine serving as the reaction medium. This reaction is conveniently carried out at a temperature in the range of 90.degree. to 198.degree. C., usually at the reflux temperature for periods of approximately thirty minutes to approximately eighteen days. The compounds of Formulas I, VI, XII, XVII and XVIII thus obtained are isolated directly from the reaction medium after chilling. Alternatively, the desired product can be isolated by pouring the reaction mixture into a mixture of ice and water and filtering the resulting product. The isolated product can be purified by conventional means such as recrystallization or reslurrying with a suitable organic liquid followed by filtration. Alternatively, the purification can be combined with the isolation by extracting the mixture of ice, water and product with a suitable water immiscible organic liquid, for example, toluene and then concentrating the organic liquid solution of the product by conventional means such as evaporation or distillation. In some instances, the compounds of Formulas I, VI and VII are insoluble in the reaction medium and are removed by filtration. The filtrate is then poured into a mixture of ice and water and the compounds of Formulas XII, XVII and XVIII are isolated by filtration.
It will, of course, be appreciated that some of the starting phthalides and furopyridinones are isomers and mixtures of isomers by virtue of their method of preparation as described in some of the patents indicated hereinbelow. Throughout this application the nomenclature 5/6- is adopted in reference to 5/6-carboxyphthalides and esters thereof used as starting materials to produce 6/7-carboxy-phthalazinones and esters thereof and 5/6-carboxyphthalimidines and esters thereof. Further, it will be appreciated that the reaction of an inherently unsymmetrical anhydride in the preparation of the furopyridinones can produce isomers and mixtures of isomers. Since both isomers are useful in the practice of this invention, the mixture of isomers formed was utilized as the starting lactones in the practice of this invention.
The lactones of Formula XXIII, XXV and XXVI hereinabove, which are required as starting materials in the preparation of the final products of Formulas I, VI, VII, XII, XVII and XVIII are generally known generically as phthalides and furopyridinones. The following are examples illustrative of a few of these lactones which can be utilized in this invention: diaryl phthalides, for example, 3,3-bis(4-dimethylaminophenyl)-6-dimethylaminophthalide commonly known as crystal violet lactone, or simply CVL, 3-(4-dimethylaminophenyl)-3-[2,4-bis(dimethylamino)phenyl]-6-dimethylaminophthalide and similar compounds described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,094,877 which issued June 13, 1978; aryl heteryl phthalides, for example, 3-[2,4-bis(dimethylamino)phenyl]-3-(1-ethyl-2-methyl-3-indolyl)phthalide disclosed in Belgian Pat. No. 864,376, granted Aug. 28, 1978, and similar compounds found in U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,491,112 and 4,153,609 which issued Jan. 20, 1970 and May 8, 1979, respectively; bis(heteryl)phthalides, for example, 3,3-bis(1-ethyl-2-methyl-3-indolyl)phthalide, 3,3-bis(1-n-butyl-2-methyl-3-indolyl)phthalide and similar compounds described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,509,173 and 4,102,893 which issued Jan. 20, 1970 and July 5, 1978, respectively; 3-(2-ethoxy-4-diethylaminophenyl)-3-(1,2-dimethylindol-3-yl)-5/6 -ethoxycarbonylphthalide and similar compounds described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,189,171 which issued Feb. 19, 1980; and furopyridinones, for example, 5/7-(2-methoxy-4-diethylaminophenyl)-5/7-(1-ethyl-2-methyl-3-indolyl)-furo[3,4b]-pyridine-5(7H)/7(5H)-one, described in Japanese Patent Publication 118,515/74, which published Nov. 13, 1974.
